Sri Parthasarathy Perumal Thirukkovil (Aranmula) was built by Arjuna, who came here at the end of the Mahabaratha war. Lord Parthasarathy is the owner of 39 villages in and around Aranmula and people in these villages consider Lord Parthasarathy as their protector.
For Sri Vaishnavaites, this place is of great significance – it is a Divyadesam situate in Malai Nadu – it is ‘Thiruvaranvilai” sung by Swami Nammalwar.
Aranmula
is around 120 kms away from
Trivandrum, and almost the same distance
from Cochin too ... this place is near Chenganoor. Aramula is the place where the
'Thiruvabharanams’ (ornaments) Ayyappa Swami at Sabarimala, were originally
kept
